Bianca Shonee Arroyo-Kreimes's work is inspired by the complex history of orchids and humans, a relationship of admiration and myth, desire and rarity, but also modification and artificiality. Botania depicts a future in which flowers are pollinated by the touch of a human finger. Futuristic and erotic allusions, bio-mechanical hybridisation and manipulative plants - the game of species domination is at the heart of this short video, staged in the light of the moon and the sounds of locusts.
